Closing Plenary

Friday, April 13, 2018

Session Description

Our proximate future: how will emerging technologies thread us closer, or even rend us deeper? From space travel and next generation storytelling, to reimaginations of education and contextualized data, we’ll look to the horizon for the potential of transformative impact. We round out the Forum with a performance from Lakou Mizik, a multigenerational collective of musicians who survived the devastating Haitian earthquake of 2010 and honor the healing spirit of their cultural roots.
